Speaking of cinema, I don’t know if you know this or not, but Viggo actually broke his toe on that one scene in the great series of films known as The Lord of the Rings
“And you know what else is square? Today’s video sponsor, Squarespace.”

What an amazing and in-depth video essay. I loved the part where you explained the significance of Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo in regards to Plankton stealing the formula.
"How a krabby patty represents depression and anxiety"
Im always amazed at their ability to turn what should be a 10 minute video tops into a 2-4 hour journey.

I’ve seen some great video essays; I’ve seen some terrible video essays. I’ve seen some long video essays; I’ve seen some short video essays. I’ve seen some hilarious video essays; I’ve seen some video essays that nearly drove me to tears. But this, Well, This did what none of those ever could. What did it do, you ask? Well, Allow me to explain. Part 1: The Early History of Written Essays (Socrates - Aristotle)

"The Rise and Fall Of..." "In Defense Of..." "The Problem With..."
You skipped the creation of the earth, but I’ll forgive you
forgot the generic lo-fi hip hop beats
